Subject: Taskbar pinning and grouping doesn't work smooth
Feedback Type: Problem
Product Area: Notes Client
Technical Area: New Features
Platform: Other
Release: 8.5.1
Reproducible: Always

When running under Windows 7, the pinning and grouping of Lotus Notes 8.5.1 doesn't work as it should. When I pin the Start Menu / Desktop link to the taskbar, I can start LN, but the link icon in the task bar isn't replaced by the window tab, instead the icon stays and a separate window tab appears (I assume this is because the link points to notes.exe while the process owning the window is notes2.exe. However, if I pin the window to the task bar, the resulting icon doesn't start Notes properly, as it is calling notes2.exe directly and the Java run-time isn't initiated correctly.

This is not a major issue, but it definitely is annoying.
